A bag of chips will sell 1000 bags at $3 per bag every week. The chip manufacturers are looking to increase the price of the chips and research has shown that for every $0.10 increase in price, they will sell 10 less bags of chips. 

What is a function that could represent the profit for the chips in a week? 

f(x)= (1000-10x)(3+0.1x)

The rate of change in the surface area of a cell culture can be modelled by the function

S(t)=-0.003(t-5)^2+0.42

 where S(t) is the rate of change in the surface area in square millimetres per hours at time t in hours, and  0 ≤ t ≤ 12. Write an equation that relates the time in terms of surface area... 

S^-1(t)= +- sqrt(-(t-0.42)/(0.003)) +5

A watch company has been selling 1300 watches per week at $15 each.  They are planning a price increase.  A survey indicates that for every dollar increase in price, there will be a drop of 50 sales per week.  If it costs $10 to make each watch, what should the selling price be to maximize profit and what is the max profit? 

Reminder: the profit function is equal to Revenue - Cost

The revenue is the amount of money you sell the watch for multiplied by the number of watches

The cost is the amount it costs to make one watch times the number of watches sold

Maximum Profit happens when there have been 10.5 increases so the cost of the watch is $25.50. The max profit is $12012.50


Profit function is: 

P(x)=(1300-50x)(15+x)-(10(1300-50x))
